I happen to have several containers of Lyles Golden Syrup and a tub of Blackstrap Molasses in the cupboard.
I found a web archive of unholymess.com which seems to be the most referenced source of information on making Invert Sugar for brewing: Making Brewers Invert | half a cat
I had assumed that with the Dilution Method I simply blend Golden Syrup and Blackstrap Molasses together at the given ratio, but reading through the comments section I find that this is possibly not correct?

Can anyone who has produced Invert Sugar using the Dilution Method confirm? Is any of the first process relevant to the Dilution Method?
I will also try "the Right Way™" at some point but I'd like to brew this week and I have ingredients to hand.
Thanks in advance for any pointers!

"If I wanted to make invert no3 from golden syrup and black strap can I just add both towards then end of the boil? Do they need to be brought to a boil and mixed well separately first?"
"You can do whatever you want…. but that won’t be making no3 and then adding it to a beer. It’ll change the chemistry and the flavors."
